Innovation is the gift that keeps on giving at Audi. Recently, it’s brought us gems like the Virtual Cockpit instrument display, lauded MMI interface, and will soon bring Level 4 semi-autonomous driving, a 311-mile EV, and AI to the table.

In June, Audi was the first automaker permitted to demonstrate an automated vehicle in the state of New York as the company showcased Audi Highway Pilot technology at the statehouse for legislators, staffers and assorted media.
